That is eerily familiar.

Yes. It's mind-boggling how a book that contains such an impassioned plea for empathy with those who are different from us could have come from someone so full of hate.

Especially since, in this case, the book doesn't agree politically with the author.

I totally out-indifferent my roommate's cat. When my roommate is gone, it will freak out and start begging for my attention. I count it as a win for humanity.

"It's bigger on the inside."

Yeah, the actual stories weren't particularly memorable; just a bunch of basic urban legends. The art is what made those books.

Beatrice from Much Ado About Nothing. Particularly when played by Emma Thompson.

I'm sure a lot of people will hate this, but...

And as a bonus, we could have batshit crazy old man Han Solo in the new movies!

Oh god, that would have been so perfect.

While we're at it, Paul McGann as The Doctor for more than a TV movie and a web short.

Yep. Those movies are pretty mediocre for the most part, but the chemistry between Christopher Reeve and Margot Kidder is so charming you just don't care.

So the king of dreams has gotten himself stuck in the form of an owl. I'm sure this won't have any catastrophic reality-destroying results or anything.

I loved Billy Boyd's song in Return of the King, but I can't even get through this. It just sounds like a hollow rehash of Into the West.

"as many people have seen him over the years."

This.

That is exactly what I was thinking of when I made my post.

The coded gay villain. Surely you can come up with better ways to make bad guys unnerving than giving them effeminate gestures.

No, the show won't ruin the books. Martin's directionless writing and horrendous editor already beat it to the punch.
